Sparx (Donna Force) is a fictional superheroine published by DC Comics. She first appeared in The Adventures of Superman Annual #5 (1993) and was created by Karl Kesel, Tom Grummett and Ed Hannigan.[1]

Fictional character biography

Donna Force is a member of a Canadian metahuman family, and desires to be like them.[2] During the Bloodlines event, Donna is attacked by alien parasites who activate her meta-gene, giving her electricity-manipulating abilities.

Sparx later gains the abilities of the "Qwa-Angel", an energy being from Qward, and destroys the Predators, an emotion-manipulating species. She loses the Angel's powers afterward, but remains an ally of the Teen Titans.[3][4][5]

In other media

Sparx appears as a character summon in Scribblenauts Unmasked: A DC Comics Adventure.[6]
